5-10% chance for the Furnace/whatever build-specific weapon you just looted to be massively more powerful than the normal version, easily carrying you a GR level or two higher.
[quote]Randomness shouldn't dictate success or failure but instead provide a varied experience. Mmmmmmmmmmmm-hm.

Basically, no appropriate ancient weapon = not competitive on boards. And odds of getting one are very low. Incredibly bad game design.

Some improvements but these announcements do not really make me want to come back to the game. Especially since they failed to mention anything about the stupid oneshot/cheat death type of "difficulty" in the endgame, particularly Jailer/Frozen/Thunderstorm.

Also, just fucking remove trials already. Jesus christ. They are not fun, and they are not necessary. They are utterly stupid, tedious and a huge waste of time.

I reaaaaaaly hope they remove the + weapon damage affixes from the pool of affected affixes for the ancient legendaries. It just makes ancients a must have instead of a nice to have. Taking a step from loot 2.0 back to loot 1.0.

they really had nothing to say apart from stating the obvious about the RNG nature of stuff. probably never going to say anything important anyway, that's why it got scheduled against the warcraft movie panel.

well hoping for something better tomorrow. all these changes are meh. a little bit excited about the new zone and monsters but that's it.

Enjoy your endless treadmill guys. Once again Blizzard continues to think more items and bigger numbers are the answer. FN tragic the Diablo franchise had to die this way =/ It's officially over. No one will be left but the saddest of the gaming community with absolutely nothing better to do.
